Sadly, we have just been informed that Lee Jasper tendered his resignation as senior advisor to the Mayor of London this evening.

It is therefore our understanding that he will not be speaking to the London Assembly tomorrow morning at 10AM and your attendance is no longer necessary. 

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and have endeavoured to bring this information to you as quickly as possible. 

Thank you again for your patience and support.  We will be making a full statement in due course.
